Cyanide is known to inhibit the flow of electrons along the electron transport chain. How would exposure to cyanide affect the p

H of the outer mitochondrial compartment (the inter- membrane space)

Answer:

The pH will be very High.

Explanation:

The electron chain is responsible for generating the Proton Motive Force, which pumps H+ (protons) into the inter membrane space, to lower the pH.Therefore if Cyanide inhibits the ETC, the PMF will be stopped.

Hydrogen ions will not be pumped into the inter-membrane space,to lower the pH  of the medium for increase acidity. Hence, electrochemical gradient from the diffusion of H+ back into the matrix will not  be generated,

Energy for ATP synthesis by ATPase Enzyme will not be produced. Therefore ATP synthesis will stop.

Answer:

Explanation:

The earth turns on its axis every day; it orbits the sun, just like all the other planets in our Solar System. When viewed from space, it turns counter-clockwise.

Because it rotates around the earth at the exact same speed as it rotates around its own axis, so that the same side of the moon is constantly facing the surface of the earth.

Tilt of the earth on its axis is responsible for season formation. The amount of sunlight obtained by various regions on earth surface is regulated by tilt. The places of earth that are facing the Sun and get direct sunlight experiences summers while the others which are facing away from the Sun experience winter season.

What provides evidence for plate tectonics?
adell [148]
Some of the best evidence for the theory of plate tectonic are earthquakes, plants that are in different continents across the ocean,or mountains. Some of the best evidence for the theory of plate tectonic are earthquakes, plants that are in different continents across the ocean,or mountains.

HELP ME IM TO"not smart* AND I NEED THE ANSWER

Given Proposition: The Shark Population has increased. This is assuming that we only base it off of the given food tree, rather than using the food web, which is more factually correct. This means that the sharks in the area can only eat sea otters, and that sea star populations and sea otters can only eat clams.

1) In this case, the shark population increases. This generally means that the sea otter population by itself has increased, suggesting a positive net change within the given food chain. However, with increased shark populations, would mean a damage to the amount of sea otters in the area. This can create an underpopulation of sea otters, which, if sea stars were not a factor, can mean a increase of clam population.

However.

2) Sea stars are a part of the food chain given. Therefore, it can be suggested that while the sea otter population may stabilize and/or diminish, the sea star has no "predator". This means that with the decrease of the sea otter population, the sea star population may actually grow, as the competition for the same source diminishes. Again, with the demand taking over the need, the sea star population may fall once again due to overfeeding, and essentially starvation.

In essence:

Shark Population: Increased

Sea Otter Population: Decreases (is eaten)

Therefore, Clam Population is speculated to increase.

However, the Sea star population would thereby increase due to having more food.

A larger sea star population in which the clam population cannot sustain would collapse, leading to a fall.

Also, due to the smaller amounts of sea otters in the area, the shark population may also see to an decrease of population, as they die from starvation.

The sea otter population would then stabilize when the predatory amounts or less, and their competition collapses.

Of course, there will always be a "food web". Sea otters do not solely rely on clams, neither do sharks solely rely on otters.
